Today I ran across a poem that made me think of you, Meekaboo, and miss you all over again. It brought back the pain of that sad day when we had to say goodbye and let you go. Now I'm crying like a baby all over again. I guess it's only been a year, so maybe it's not so unusual for the pain to be still close to the surface.

Maddy sure is working her magic to fill up that doggie place in our lives. Of course, no one will ever replace you and it's easy to see that. But what a blessing she has been and we thank you for helping us find her before you left.

You were my inspiration to pursue animal therapy and now after all this time, Maddy and I are almost there! I hope we'll make you proud when we finally pass our Delta test this spring. I'll never forget how happy you made people when we visited Grandma's nursing home. I can't wait to see the smiles when Maddy starts visiting at the hospital!

We love you and miss you and think of you often. Happy Hearts Day, sweet doggie girl!
